Arctostaphylos pajaroensis is a species of manzanita known by the common name Pajaro manzanita. It is endemic to California, where it is known mainly from Monterey County.

Historical occurrences have been noted in Santa Cruz County and far western San Benito County — these may no longer exist.[1] Most of the extant populations are located in the hills south of the Pajaro River Valley.[2] It is a member of the chaparral plant community.
